Comparative Evaluation of Fracture Resistance of Dental Amalgam, Z350 Composite Resin and Cention-N Restoration In Class II Cavity

Journal Title: IOSR Journal of Dental and Medical Sciences (IOSR-JDMS) - Year 2018, Vol 17, Issue 4

Abstract

Restoration after caries development in posterior teeth is generally done with different restorative material which includes metallic and non-metallic materials like amalgam, gold, composite resin, glass ionomer and ceramic. Amalgam has its own disadvantages of unaesthetic appearance toxicity and for which tooth coloured restorations emerged with better aesthetic properties. Gold on the other hand is expensive, technique sensitive and has unaestetic gold hue which is unfavourable for restorations despite better physical properties. In recent years with advancement in restorative materials composite resins have undergone several modifications to improve its restorative properties like aesthetic, physical and mechanical properties. Similarly glass ionomer cements are also modified to achieve better restorative properties to increases fracture resistance of tooth. Z350 nanofill composite resin is an advanced composite resin that can withstand such loads. Another new restorative material that is being launched for such class II cavity restorations is Cention-N that has the claim of higher fractural strength. This study aims at comparing the fracture resistance of two such advanced restorative materials, Z350 nanofill composite resin and Cention-N restorative material in a class II cavity with routinely used silver amalgam material.
